i finally added fins to my wakeboard. i set them up with 2 on each tip. pretty much the same way almost all of the wake-style boards are set up. i used two screws per fin, along with the right washers and everything. all stainless of course. i drilled three holes in the fins, so i can move the fins forward, or backwards 1.5 inches. anybody know how this will effect how the board handles? so far this board looks like it is going to work pretty good. it is a hyperlite vero143. the only problem i see with the board is that it has about 2 inches of rocker.

Hi therob,
I use a connelly 140 wake board to which I have added two fins on the one end (total 3 +1 in front),and placed three footstraps as on a directional, and I can tell you it works real good.Although the board is fairly small for a directional, with a bit of practice the handling is OK and radical jibes can be done it.

i messed around with that idea too. but i decided that the board would work better in a twin tip configuration. the two biggest problems were, i didn't have the right fins, or enough of them, plus my weight was too far back on the board. if you got it to work though, then cool.
